My husband and I spent a week at the chalet last summer and had a wonderful time. We had family guest come throughout the week and everyone loved it. The view of the lake from inside as well as on the patio is awesome. I cooked big breakfasts for everyone complimented by delicious baked goods from a local shop. The "boys" rented a boat and went fishing several time - great to be able to dock the boat right at the property. Neighboring vacationers in the main house were friendly. Chalet was clean - plenty of hot water for showers. Only problem was finding the town dump open. We are looking forward to another stay in 2010.
